The Fallen is the first boss in the new game Belmont's Curse. I'd like to pay close attention to the fact that "monster" is in quotes. But now let's look at the various details of his costume and his tarot card (shown in the second picture). On the top left of the image, there is a human silhouette weilding a sword and has an apparent shoulder pad.

Moving to the third picture, there's three key details to this costume. The left arms has a yellow thorned vine coiling around it. The right hand not only has a metal gauntlet that's layered on the back of the hand, but is perpetually bloodied. And on the backside seems to be remnants of a white tailcoat with a red trim along the bottom.

Both coincide with the previous designs of Leon Belmont. Though, with some caveats. Leon's big metal gauntlet is usually on his left hand, and he uses the whip with his right. The Fallen reverses the use of both hands. But both swing with a whip, The Fallen uses a cross in the first trailer, and the perpetual bloodied right hand could be inspired by the blood pact with Sara for the creation of the Vampire Killer.

There's also one more small detail that seems to serve more as a nod to Lament of Innocence. The fifth picture at the top shows The Fallen next to a large door with 3 segments. Each segment depicts a boss, more easily visible in the sixth picture. Joan of Arc on top, Medusa on the bottom-right, and a clawed out and defaced segment on the bottom-left. These segments have a jewel(?) slot in each that are yellow, green, and purple respectively. This serves as a nod to the first portion of Lament of Innocence killing 5 bosses and collecting their orbs to unseal the door leading to the big, bad vampire. Yellow, Green, Purple, Red, and Blue are the boss orbs with Black and White being optional hidden orbs. Three of those colors line up with the door in the fifth picture.

Except it wouldn’t be a serious fanfic, it would just be Mathias judging Soma’s poor study habits and lack of alchemy skills wwww

That sounds interesting and cute!!🥺Hope I can read the fanfic one day

And this is the imagine come to my mind when I read your ask:D

P5D and P3D is just elizabeth and lavenza betting to see whose cast dances better

but what if P2ISD and P2ETD (or just P2D, that'd be fun.) was just philemon going

"tatsuya, maya, wake up. i made another bet with nyarlathotep and i'm not going to lose today."

P1D is just philemon saying "yeah you guys can go have fun, dance your hearts out" because for some reason he's NICER TO THE PERSONA 1 CAST THAN HE IS TO THE CASTS IN THE PERSONA 2 GAMES

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Philemon: After knowing your onions, now you're cooking with gas. Still, one must not forget this is no peanutty matter. You are the biggest toad in the pond, so I have confidence in your abilities to take the egg.

Naoya: A-Ah...?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Nyarlathotep: Humans think they're so great with their plastic and tea bags!

Tatsuya: ...the fuck?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Nyarlathotep: And then I will...! Hum... What's the japanese word for "gil"?

Maya: I don't know...

Nyarlathotep: You don't know sumerian...? Fine. Anyways, it's the same as "interficio".

Maya: I... don't know...
